👋 Hi! I’m a 1st 2nd 3nd 4th year computer science PhD student candidate at Northwestern University working with Dr. Andrew Crotty on data management systems with focus on sequence data processing and indexing.
I completed my B.S. in computational statistics and data sciences at the Pennsylvania State University from 2016 to 2020. During my undergraduate studies, I was advised by Dr. Ting Wang for doing researches in security and privacy of deep learning based systems. Previously, I worked as a bioinformatics programmer at the Mahony Lab where I had pleasure working with a group of genius researchers from May till Dec, 2019.
